The fragility and breakability that are basic qualities of glass are also what give it
its special characteristics of ephemerality, delicateness and beauty.
It is the very weakness of the shapes that form by accepting these characteristics
and trusting in the truth of the glass that lends them intimations of strength.
There are things that the material expresses, and signs that manifest with the recognition of that.
Mental images that are generated by experiences and memories recollected unconsciously
as a result of seeing. What seems to be around one, but is actually inside.
The things I know from the material of glass, and from my involvement with it,
are the clues with which I continue to create.
